Micato Safaris went above and beyond on our African Safari to Kenya and Tanzania. The Lodges and Tented camps were exceptional with great food and wonderful service. Our Safari Director provided little surprises on an almost daily basis- breakfast in the bush being watched over by inquisitive elephants. Lions eating their kill on a game drive late afternoon. It was seamless and no detail was overlooked. Every day the staff left us little handwritten notes and to see a fabulous bubble bath waiting after a spectacular hot air balloon ride, showed the attention to detail that made all the difference. Micato gives back every day by funding a school for children in Nairobi who might otherwise not get an education. This truly was the trip of a lifetime.

No wonder Micato won Best Safari Company 9 times! The Micato team exceeded our expectations at every turn. From the amazing support booking the trip, thanks to Leigh Rice. Air travel planning thanks to Becky Craft. Our East Africa team that handled every detail to perfection. Rufus our Safari Director, who not only managed every detail along the way, but his passion and extensive knowledge of the land and animals made our first Safari an unforgettable experience. Being met at the airport by Sima who ushered us through customs and immigration so helpful! Finally Caren who met us at the hotel when we checked in such a personable greeting to Africa. All in all we would Highly Recommend Micato to handle your Safari they are truly winners all the way around!

Our honeymoon with Micato Safaris to Kenya and Tanzania was nothing short of extraordinary! From the moment we started planning, the Micato team walked us through all the safari options within our budget, ensuring we found the perfect itinerary tailored to our dream trip. Their attention to detail before we even left—helping us pack the right items and ensuring we had all the necessary travel documents—was just the beginning of their exceptional service.
Micato handled every single aspect of our trip, so we didn’t have to worry about planning a thing. The staff were incredibly kind and welcoming, and we built genuine friendships with so many people we met along the way. We cannot thank our guide, Peter, enough for everything he did for us throughout the Safari. Knowing it was our honeymoon, he went above and beyond to make the safari feel extra special, from thoughtful surprises to personalized touches.
The lodges we stayed at were absolutely one-of-a-kind, each offering breathtaking views, luxurious accommodations, and incredible hospitality. We also had the opportunity to witness Micato’s nonprofit initiatives through AmericaShare and Huru. Seeing the meaningful work they do in Africa was deeply moving and added an extra layer of significance to our trip.
From the awe-inspiring wildlife encounters to the unparalleled service, Micato Safaris created an unforgettable honeymoon experience. If you’re looking for a once-in-a-lifetime journey filled with adventure, luxury, and heart, Micato is the perfect choice. We are so grateful for everything they did to make our trip so special and will treasure these memories forever. We can't wait to go on another Micato Safari in the future!

Our safari with Micato was incredible. It was a bucket list trip for me, and not only did it meet my expectations, but it exceeded them wildly. Our guide, Peter Wambugu, took care of every detail, so that we did not have to worry about anything the entire time we were on the ground in Africa. And the staff back in the US were great at helping us plan for the trip. My husband and I took our 21 year-old daughter, and I know it is something that the three of us will cherish forever! I don't know if I will ever get over the giraffes gliding by us, or the fields of elephants and zebra that we saw everyday when we went out on our game drives. We spent New Year's eve checking out hippos playing in a river, and we welcomed the new year by taking a sunrise balloon ride over the Maasai Mara, that was totally worth waking up so early for. Honestly, it feels like it was a dream . . . I am so, so glad that we did it, and so glad that we chose to do it with Micato.

Wow, just WOW! Micato is the definition of true Luxury with class. Not one stone was left unturned from the moment I stepped foot off the plane in Nairobi until the moment my bags were checked upon departing back home. Micato's knowledgeable safari directors, round the clock concierge team and partnerships with the local safari lodges make your entire adventure totally seamless.
All you do is have to show up and they do the rest. Micato is truly the best in the business. I cannot wait to return and am already planning my next Micato Safari! A huge shout out to our safari director, George, for going the extra mile to make our trip so special.
